Savage Brothers rocking The Rock for 28 years

The Savage Brothers – familiar faces on Nantucket’s bar-band circuit for nearly three decades – play everything from “Mack the Knife” to Nirvana to Black Sabbath to Queen’s “Tie Your Mother Down.”

Michael Savage said the staying power of the Hartfordbased band, established in 1984, simply boils down to a desire to play music. The Savage Brothers have been playing on Nantucket for 28 years, most of that time on stage at The Chicken Box.

The Savage Brothers will play The Chicken Box, 6 Dave St., Friday, May 2 and Saturday May 3. Saturday’s show benefits the Nantucket S.T.A.R. program. The event starts at 7 p.m. and includes food and a silent auction in addition to the band’s performance. Tickets are available online at www.nantucketstar.com. Tickets can be purchased at the door for $25. Friday’s show starts later, typically around 10 p.m., and there will be a cover charge at the door.
